> a .rar malware file hosted on Google drive
By the same standard of guilty until proven innocent, should they block the Google Drive domain, and warn all users that Google Drive is unsafe/malicious, during the same review period?
- mcfedr 3y agoDoes seem particularly ironic that the actual malware was/is hosted by Google themselves
- araes 3y agoGlad somebody sees the humor in this. "Google ban-hammered your domain for hosting a link to Google."
- mrits 3y agoSeems like it would be by design. Scan GDrive for malicious software and see who is linking to it.
- ranting-moth 3y agoPeople take your comment as as joke but you are 100% correct. This is pure unfiltered hypocrisy on Google's behalf.
- kube-system 3y agoI understand this is an ironic retort, but the actual standard is even worse than "guilty until proven innocent", it is "arbitrary rule of whatever is convenient to Google's interests". This is the danger of relying on a centralized corporate entity to gatekeep a public resource like the public internet. It is extrajudicial. And it is a gigantic power for one entity to hold without any oversight.
